Royal Canin Indoor Long Hair is a complete dry food tailored to meet the needs of the furriest of pets. How it works This complete dry food can be given to indoor longhaired cats aged between 1 and 7 years old. Cats with longer hair are prone to hairballs, so this mix uses a combination of different fibres that help fur pass through the digestive system rather than sit in the stomach. It’s highly digestible, meaning your cat will be able to absorb all of the vitamins and minerals from every bite. Rich in quality proteins, this mix keeps your pet's coat looking glossy and in good condition and gives your them lots of energy to play. Along with the tailored fibre content, these digestible proteins help to reduce your pet’s stool odour. Added nutrients maintain their urinary tract, which can be prone to infection as they get older. Key benefits formulated for longhaired indoor cats unique combination of fibre helps to reduce fur balls made using highly-digestible proteins protein keeps fur glossy and maintains energy levels fibres aid digestive function nutrients limit stool odour helps maintain a healthy urinary tract When to use it Cats naturally love to groom themselves, but this can lead to them having hairballs. A hairball is a build-up of fur that can’t pass through the gut and so is brought back up. They often look like mucus or vomit and can be very unpleasant for your pet (and you!). Feeding your cat a fibre-rich mix like Royal Canin can help these hairballs pass. Assist your pet in getting rid of loose fur by brushing them regularly. As the weather warms up your cat will start to shed their winter coat. In summer they might need extra help getting rid of excess fur that could otherwise be ingested. If you think your pet is struggling with hairballs, it's best to speak to your vet for advice.
